Brett Sandberg is a professional endurance racing driver, FIA Silver graded, competing in shared-car multiclass championships in the United States and Europe. His indexed record spans nine seasons from 2014 to 2023, racing primarily in IMSA's national series for Automatic Racing and Change Racing, alongside international competition in the 24-hour and Nürburgring championships. He drove GT3 and GT4-level production-based sports cars and near-standard touring machinery depending on the series and class.[1]
Across 17 starts in four championships, Sandberg took two podium finishes; one came in a 24-hour multiclass endurance race for Reiter Engineering in 2017, and the other in the IMSA Pilot Challenge GS class driving for Automatic Racing between 2018 and 2023. His most consistent work came in the Pilot Challenge, where he made nine starts over six seasons. His final indexed appearance was in Germany's Nürburgring Langstrecken-Serie in 2017, where he finished 28th in the championship standings.[2]
Sandberg raced regularly against professional and semi-professional opposition graded at his own level. He was closely matched with Jeff Westphal, a Gold-graded professional and 2019 IMSA Pilot Challenge GS champion, and typically finished behind Spencer Pumpelly, a Silver-graded professional and 2016 IMSA Pilot Challenge ST champion with substantially more endurance racing experience. Sandberg finished ahead of Chase Briscoe, an elite professional and 2016 ARCA champion with 225 NASCAR Cup Series starts, on three occasions, and once finished ahead of Austin Cindric, an established professional and two-time NASCAR Xfinity champion.
